Hardbound. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: new. First Edition. How were Chinese pots made, glazed and fired? Why did China discover porcelain more than 1,000 years before the West? What are the effects of China's influence on world ceramics? These questions (and many more) are answered in this history of Chinese ceramic technology, from the late Stone Age to the present. The scene is set through the use of historical texts, archaeological excavation and the principles of ceramic science. Chapters are provided on the formation of clays and their relation to the geologies of China, on firing, on manufacturing methods and sequences, on glazes, pigments and gilding and on the impact of Chinese ceramic technology around the world from the 7th to the 21st century. Sections also address the development of ceramic technologies in neighbouring Korea, Japan and Vietnam. The non-specialist reader will appreciate its unique coverage of research materials originally published in several languages. An essential reference, encyclopaedic in scope. A new copy still in shrink-wrap. xlix, 918 pp., 172 illust. incl. col. and b&w photos and line drawings. Size: 25 x 18 cm. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 001866

This hefty volume is 1/27 of the late Joseph Needham's authoritative and still continuing series, publishedto datein seven volumes and 27 parts. The focus is scientific and artisanal, covering clays, glazes, firing, kilns, porcelain, stoneware, and pigments, as used to create everything from tiny celadon incense-burners to giant polychrome glazed roofs and cornices for vast complexes and entire cities. Needham's series has been decisively influential in global understanding of China's pre-modern scientific and technological superiority over the West. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 8807
